Extend the Growing Season with Large, Portable Pop Up Greenhouse

Greenhouse lets you get a head start on growing

Protects plants from chilly temperatures, wind, frost

Freestanding; easy to set up and take down

Includes shade cover, ground stakes and tie-downs

This freestanding, walk-in 9' x 9' greenhouse sets up quickly to create a protected growing area for plants. Handy features make it an ideal place to start seeds, harden off transplants,
protect container plantings and extend the growing season. The clear glazing material allows maximum light and heat transmission. Open bottom lets you place over existing plants. Two large, zippered screen doors provide easy access. Screened vents provide good air circulation while keeping out bugs and birds. Includes access portholes for hoses and power cords. Sets up easily; no tools required. Folds to a compact size; includes bag for easy transport and storage.

Within a couple days of putting this up there were small tears from the wind and then, even with trying to fix them, they eventually grew. The whole corner seam then ripped out within 10 days. Not worth your money, unless you have a pretty sheltered location in which to place it.

The concept is a good one but the execution was poor. The instructions for set up are extremely poor and contrary to what the bos says, it is definitely not self erecting. It is cheaply made out of very poor quality materials. I hope it will get me through this one season. Save your money.

The greenhouse arrives in double boxed cardboard and is enclosed in a bag the size of a truck tire. When I tried to right the bag, using the sewn in strap the bag ripped open due to the 70 lb weight. Assembly is NOT a one person job. It takes 2 people to get it done. The support tubing simply inserts together (not good enough) so I decided to reinforce the joins by wrapping all of them with foil tape. One X brace fit the corner pockets fine, but two of us could not get the second cross brace to form a straight "X". So I simply used more foil tape to bind them. The side windows unzip nicely but there is no way to secure the outer flap up. Velcro squares didn't hold. Because I intend to use the structure to also store firewood, I put a 10x10 tarp down on the bare ground. Pounding the ground stakes in was horrible, due to the local rocky soil. Even drilling into the ground didn't help.I had to buy stronger ones and quick-creted the critical ones into the ground.

I consider these flaws to be relatively minor and overall am satisfied with my purchase. Now for the test to see if it will survive 8 months of winter. (Yes, I have a 20' brush to deal with snow loading).
